TENURE
              Freehold.

              TENANCY
              The property is entirely let to Whibleys The Jewellers Ltd t/a N Courlander Jewellers on a 99 year lease
              from 3rd November 1970 expiring 2nd November 2069 providing an unexpired term of 52.5 years. The rent
              is reviewed every seven years, the next being in on 3rd November 2019. The property is part sublet to a
              beauty operator, details of which are available on request.

              The current passing rent is £95,000 per annum which devalues to £220 Zone A. The devaluation of the
              passing rent takes into account a positive allowance for return frontage onto George Street (3%) and
              review pattern (2%) as well as negative allowances for the unexpired term (25%) and restrictive user clause
              prescribed within the lease (10%).

              We believe the property to be reversionary taking into account the recent Ole & Stein letting at 59 George
              Street, which reflected £230.50 Zone A net effective. There is a potential opportunity to re-gear the
              occupational lease onto more standard institutional terms therefore increasing the global rental value to
              £149,000 per annum, in line with the current market rate.
